Prepreg and fiber-reinforced composite material

Abstract

Provided is a prepreg including reinforced fibers and a resin composition, in which when an average thickness of the prepreg is designated as D, a loss tangent tanδ at a slit processing temperature when the resin composition present in a portion located at a depth of D/10 from a surface of the prepreg is evaluated using an 8-mm plate at 50 rad/s or more is designated as y, and a water absorption amount when the prepreg collected in a size of 100×100 mm is immersed in 5-mm water for 5 minutes is designated as x (hereinafter, referred to as water pickup evaluation), a relationship of Formula 1 below is satisfied. Provided is a prepreg that provides a slit tape having excellent processability and quality, which is suitably used for producing a fiber-reinforced composite material using an automatic lamination device.
